Homecoming 2010 Update

Friday
I spoke with Mecklenburg Gardens, and we have the upstairs area. If you are not familiar with this area, you walk into the bar, turn right and the staircase is back on your right. We will have a couple of waitresses/waiters serving just our group.


Saturday
The game is a noon kickoff, and the parade is at 9am. We will have the bar and food set up in the front yard at 7:30 am.


Sunday
All events are on as scheduled. Doors open at 10:30 AM, and a program will start at 11:30 AM recognizing the journey the property at 2707 Clifton Ave has taken, and the efforts put forth to get it to where it is today. The program should conclude by 12:30P. Drinks and Light hor d'oeuvres will be provided.


PARKING
The best bet for parking this weekend is the Stratford Heights Garage just south of the house, with access points on both Clifton Ave and Stratford. Should that garage be full, look to the Deaconess Hospital garage on Stratford. 


If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me at GcaaofSAE@gmail.com

Welcome!

Welcome to the new home of the Greater Cincinnati Alumni Association of SAE.  We have had some ups and downs with technology over the last 12 months, and in an effort to put that all behind us, we have set up a new and hopefully PERMANENT home for the GCAA of SAE.  This site will be a means for you to read articles, messages from brothers, and about upcoming events.

This year the calendar has our traditional events planned: A fall picnic on September 22, homecoming on October 30th and Founder’s Day on March 4th. 

Along those same lines, we are working with Ohio Epsilon on the 100th anniversary celebration of the Devotie Hall Association and the opening of the new renovations and expansion of the James Gamble Nippert Memorial lodge. 

We have had a great past 12 months, and I promise you that with your help and continued support that we will have a great future 12 months.
